Principal Pensions Administrator

Company: The Actuary

Location: Manchester

Posted: May 10th, 2026

A well-regarded, privately owned UK pensions consultancy are looking for a Principal Pensions Administrator to join their team. This is a senior, client-facing role with real ownership: you'd be the lead contact for trustees and advisers, overseeing complex DB casework, and taking charge of scheme-wide projects including buy-ins, buyouts, GMP equalisation and wind-ups.

What sets this apart from a typical senior admin role is the breadth of involvement. You'll be attending and presenting at trustee meetings, mentoring colleagues across levels, and actively contributing to business development. It's a role for someone who wants to be genuinely influential - not just technically strong, but visible and trusted by clients.

You'll be a strong fit if you:

Have 8+ years of DB pensions administration experience

Are comfortable leading on complex, high-stakes projects

Have experience as the main point of contact for trustees or advisers

Want a role where your knowledge shapes how the team works and grows

PMI qualification is a bonus but not essential.

The business has a genuinely collaborative culture and a clear commitment to giving people interesting, substantive careers - not just jobs. The role is available across three locations: Manchester, Glasgow or Belfast.

If you're at that stage where you want more ownership and client influence, do not hesitate to apply or reach out directly - Beatriz.araoz@eamesconsulting.com
